Greg Hollier, owner of Kempsey AMCAL pharmacy said they have been "very busy" with vaccinations.

"Monday was huge, we did about 60 vaccinations, and around 30 of them on Tuesday, so we are right in the heat of it," Mr Hollier said.

"A lot of people have been hanging out for Moderna, especially kids ( 12- 17), and we are getting a fair few in that age group."

There is a four week wait between the first and second Moderna jab.

If you want to get vaccinated at a pharmacy, all you will need is your Medicare number, and identification so it can be documented.

"I think access to Pfizer was limited for so long that people didn't know what to do, so they held on for Moderna," Mr Hollier said.

"We all need to get vaccinated, it's safe, it's essential and it's the thing we need to get us back to what we are used to doing.

"All I want is to get the vaccination rate up to 90% so we can just open the borders, open everything, and just live with it."

Healthy North Coast Chief Executive Officer, Julie Sturgess provided an update on vaccine doses.

"We anticipate about 11,000 doses of Moderna will be available per week through about 91 pharmacies, with the Pharmacy Guild of Australia (PGA) playing the lead role in enabling distribution of this new vaccine," Ms Sturgess said.

"We are pleased at the rising vaccine uptake rate across the North Coast, with 79% of those aged over 16 having had their first dose and 49% having had their second dose.

"This is slightly higher (3%) than the national average but a bit lower (7%) than the state average. This difference is due to the significant push and increased dose supply supporting Sydneysiders to get vaccinated.

"The Mid North Coast area is closer to the state average, with 84% of people having had their first dose.

"Overall, rates in our region have been increasing about 5% a week, which is on par with national vaccination trends."
